    Yea I will more than likely have something made for it. I'll put the final design on here for any of you that want to do them.

    Someone, please, just mold and produce "1 piece" hoods, heh. The inserts are my biggets gripe on these things, hahaha. One piece hood with scoop induction (WRX) or extraction (EVO) .... mmmm.

    Yeah, I'm definitely down for a one piece fiberglass hood. I don't care whether it's carbon fiber or whatever. I just want a scoop and a finish to match the rest of the VX. Plus, my clearcoat is peeling really bad on my original hood, so it's either replace the hood or spend a bunch of money having it repainted.

    Joe, what's an FRP tilt-nose???

    Once I move into my house and have a garage, I might be up for making the one piece hood.

    They'd be shipped unpainted though because I'm not going to deal with setting up a sprayer in my brand new house.

    Good news is that once you have the molds made, you can use either fiberglass or carbon layup since it can be done the same way. I'll have a vacuum bag/infusion setup as well so I can make the carbon hoods a lot lighter. Sorry can't do pre-preg.
